Notes

Sofia’s Tips:
 
  • Key limes and Persian limes (more commonly found) are interchangeable in this recipe
  • Lemon juice enhances the citrus flavour!
  • Lining the surface of your pie plate with parchment paper prevents your pie from sticking to the bottom
  • Refrigeration for at least 4 hours is best to set the No-bake Key Lime Pie filling!
